Please make sure that any orders you submit include the dates the service member is in an active duty status. (myfedloan.org)
For active - duty military members who are deployed, they may receive temporary duty status, so it's not required that your spouse occupy the home during your absence. (vahomeloancenters.org)
Active - duty status does not negatively impact eligibility; the only thing it may impact is the size of your loan entitlement. (vahomeloancenters.org)
